Second notice. If you want a free copy of the novel, get me your email and I'll send you one. If you don't want a free copy, they're now in the stores, so you can buy one.-) Whichever you choose.

Re: Lightweight browsers [Solved]
Just a note in case it may widen your choices... SFF (small form factor) computers that have DisplayPort Video ports can also be used for HDMI, an inexpensive DisplayPort to HDMI cable from Amazon will work. I have an i5 SFF HP reseller computer I use in an outbuilding here for a cheap HTPC and it ...

Re: Lightweight browsers [Solved]
There are a lot of inexpensive AMD Ryzen processors laptops out there. The Ryzen 5 5xxx series is really fast, but even the cheap Ryzen 5 3500u is ~5x as fast as your n3700. https://www.cpubenchmark.net/compare/2513vs3421/Intel-Pentium-N3700-vs-AMD-Ryzen-5-3500U Thanks, Tim. Those Ryzens do look a ...
